Pop-rock song with a female singer who sounded English. Music
Only lyrics I could make out were 'turn it up' repeated at the end of the chorus and the lines at the beginning of the chorus started with 'turn it' (it wasn't 'turn it up' again). Singer sounded a bit like the singer from Black Honey, if that helps.
A song with a female singer about being in love with your friend Music
I know a few of the lyrics but I can't find the song. It's a slow ballad-esque song about being in love with your best friend:
"And it's killing me alive. Reached the bitter end. Can't pretend I'm not in love with my best friend".
Mystery Nu Metal(?) Music Video Music
I remember seeing this on Yahoo music back around 2003-2004.
It was live action, but had some animation on a revolving cube (like this: https://youtu.be/T0RvPYRRRbE?t=40s)
that showed a dude picking his nose and eating his boogers and then his finger.
Can't remember the track, but it was metal or hard rock?
TVNZ Duke's station id song Music
Does this song even have a title/artist, let alone exist outside of being the TV station's station ID? I would like more info if it's available.
I already tried searching by lyrics. I tried audiotag too and that didn't turn up anything.

Men in a huge house Music
Im looking for a TV show that used to go on nickelodeon/ disney channel in the 2000s. it is about 3-5 men (and maybe a woman, i dont exactly remember) living/ working in a huge house. i remember they used to start every episode in a room were they played instruments and sang. they talked about what theyre gonna do in that episode. i remember one specific episode when they were in one of the rooms in their house which was a labyrinth room. they got lost and didnt find their way out until the end of the episode. i remember it was also something with a talking mice. i also remember another episode when a woman visited them.
they used the same clothes. the show had like a red and yellow color theme.
DanceDanceRevolution song Music
I've been trying to look for this one song/chart that was on DDR, presumably from 4th Mix or DDR MAX 2, something of note is that it seemed like something from earlier than 2005. The song's graphics had a nurse and/or hospital theme and the cover art is a picture of 3D render style several rows of Lego-esque minifigures. I remember reading somewhere that it was cut from some releases due to the kinda suggestive theme of the graphics?
Forgot the title, couldn't bother (and tried) looking on remywiki under "DDR cut songs" but to no avail, nothing.

Vevo ad music Music
Sometimes when I listen to music on YouTube Vevo plays a short ad. There is one section I find myself repeating in my head but naturally I don't know the name of the song. I believe it goes 'da,da,dada,da,da' and i think the singer is holding her microphone loosely while look down and to the left. anyone know what the song is, perhaps someone familiar with the ad?
it's not March of the Gladiators, or actually pronounced da,da,dada,da,da.

Peanuts Music Album? Music
I'm trying to remember one licensed Peanuts album, which if I remember, had Snoopy dressed in 80's aerobatics clothing on the cover.
Two songs, same laugh sample Music
In "Kylie Said to Jason" by The KLF there's a sample of what sounds like a woman laughing starting at 0:12-0:15 (it recurs throughout the song) and I swear I've heard that exact laugh in another song. It's not a laugh that merely sounds like it, I'm pretty sure it's the same exact sample. Can't remember if it was before or after "Kylie"'s release, but I think the other song in question was also electronic, so I'm leaning toward the latter.
edit: I think I found it on my own: "Window Peeper" by Aphex Twin (laugh can be heard from 1:26-1:30). Both songs are believed to have been released/made at around the same time and it sounds like the same laugh except altered by one or the other. Huh.
Song in R&R video Music
Does anyone know the song that plays during the "DC vs Marvel Month" title card in this video? Sounds kinda stoner-ish to me.
R and B song in the early 90s Music
A guy is singing about loosing his girl. Its an R and B song and he appears to be singing in a barn with his group. We get flashbacks abot the guy and his girl and things start off well. Happy times. Something goes wrong and she literally runs away from their home. All I remember is part of the chorus Ill bet my bottom dollar , that your not thinking about me. Anymore. Longshot , but the songs been bugging me for a while.
Song featured Twice in this Video Music
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1zf-QfChz8 (the video is "Pizza Hut PS 1 Demo Discs" by Nakey Jakey, if for some reason the link doesn't work)
My brother really wants to find out what the calm-sounding that plays twice in this video is, the one with the female choir. The first is at 1:20, and only lasts a few seconds before the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 menu theme starts playing. The second time it plays is near the end, at about 3:51.
80s-sounding song Music
My mom used to play this song when I was a child, and I've never heard it since. All I can remember was one (recurring?) part of the song: a male singer sounding vaguely like Pat Sajak saying "I" and percussion between his vocals (the best way I can describe it in text is "I- (dun da dun) I- (dun da dun)"). I believe it was a slow romantic song, and there may have been a female singer for the verses. It sounded very 80s, though it could be from anywhere up to the mid-late 2000s (when I heard it). I thought it was by The B-52s for a while, but none of the songs on the one album we have match.
Edit: Memory's still fuzzy, but here's some more details that might help: genre's most likely pop (maybe softer/mellow rock), the "I-"s were spoken with something like a voice crack partway (electronically altered?), the percussion (most likely drums) definitely stood out from the rest of the melody, and I wanna say the instrumentation/overall tone sounded something like "Electrolite" by R.E.M. (not a complete similarity of course).
A very 90s electronic music instrumental Music
The Korn remix "Good God (Dub Pistols Mix)" has an instrumental backing that sounds really familiar as if it's either sampling something or got recycled for a different track. Specifically, from 2:03 to 3:05 is the segment that sounds the most familiar, especially the bass riff.
Can anyone make out the lyrics to this song Music
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3ymC3Rcrq8 I am honestly not sure if it's in a foreign language or just really hard to understand. Only thing I can make out is the word "ecstasy"
Song on NCIS Music
There was this song on an early (season 1 or 2) episode of NCIS that Abby was listening to. It sounded a lot like "Nuclear Mission Jam" From Half Life (link here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iXfWWrwrlQ) except was slower tempo. I remember using soundhound but it came up with nothing. It could have just been music they made for the show. I could just rewatch all the season 1 and 2 episodes but I am hoping someone here will know what I mean so I don't have to.
Girl boy rock duo? Music
Does anyone know a rock group duo with a divorced couple? They are amicable exes and still sing together.The guy plays the guitar and the girl drums sometimes i think.
Mystery riff Music
Can someone tell me where the guitar riff sampled in this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bmut3whTFXs
comes from? I know I've heard it before but can't place it.
Superhero Country Song Music
Right as far as I remember the song itself wasn't about superheroes but the video featured them. I actually remember it pretty well, it's was a country 'n western song by a solo male artist (attractive, muscled, probably a vest, a very 1990's country singer) and the video was set up thus: our singer is in class and is hot for his teacher, he doodles and she becomes a cartoon superheroine, his three bullies become cartoon supervillains - I can't remember what all of them become but the fat bully- think Bulk from Bulk & Skull of Power Rangers fame - became a bubble gum monster and tore wads of bubble gum from himself to throw them. Can anyone help please?
"Magic Colors" Music
song from The '70s or The '80s where they say "Magic Colors" a lot. I forget if there were any other lyrics

A song I heard on country radio for a while around 2003 Music
I remember hearing a song on country radio for a little while around 2003ish that I haven't heard since, and can't find. Felt like it was a current song. It was a ballad. Almost certain it had a male singer. The thing that stood out about it to me was that there were lyrics(feel like in the first verse?) about heart and I think other organs. Part of me feels it's possible I'm actually miss-remembering hearing part of (the decade-ish older) Don't Take The Girl by Tim Mc Graw, but I feel this is very doubtful, but maybe possible. Thanks.
Cover of Rudolph the Reindeer where he tells the other deer to get lost Music
It was on the radio at work, but as I was on the shop floor at the time (and Christmas music loops a lot less), I couldn't identify it, or try and google it on my phone.
